Book Description
Despite its reputation as an Appalachian coal hauler, the Chesapeake & Ohio offered high-profile passenger service linking Norfolk and Washington, D.C. with Cincinnati and Louisville. In addition, C&O cars served Chicago via the New York Central and New York via the Pennsylvania Railroad. This outstanding color history documents C&O passenger cars and trains from 1945 to the emergence of Amtrak in 1970. A large portion of the story revolves around C&O's massive 1950 order of 300 Pullman can, but there is also coverage of The Sportsman service across Ohio to Detroit, and Michigan passenger services inherited from the Pere Marquette Railway, which was merged in 1947. With roster data, interior views, and detailed color imagery of C&O's vibrant yellow, blue, and silver livery, this resource is sure to appeal to C&O modelers and railfans alike.

Book Description
In the late 1860s, the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway (C&O) pushed its first tracks westward from Virginia's Tidewater region across the mountains into what was then the new state of West Virginia. Ultimately its tracks stretched across a half-dozen states and even into Canada. Appalachian coal was the C&O's primary cargo, but its fast freights carried shipments of all kinds, and its crack passenger trains were marvels of their day. In 1963, the C&O merged with the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in the first of what would become a wave of railroad mergers. Today the old C&O is part of giant CSX Transportation. Images of Rail: The Chesapeake and Ohio Railway gathers 200 photographs that chronicle the C&O story. Here is a fond look back at its mammoth steam locomotives and the diesels that replaced them, its bustling passenger stations, and much more, including the legendary John Henry, who beat that steam drill, and Chessie, the sleeping kitten that was the C&O's much-loved trademark.
